Well mates don't you just hate those stubborn dam icons that always refuse to leave the particular place or you can say the Desktop. E.g The network Neighborhood icon. You must be thinking that it is very easy to delete just right click on it and choose delete, but its not like that, you know why? when you will right click on it you will see that neither the rename or the delete option. So delete these folders there are two ways.
First one using the System Policy Editor (Poledit in the Windows installation CD) and the second way is using registry :)
Before we go ahead I would like to tell you something about the CLSID values. These Values are these folders , like the Control Panel, Inbox, The Microsoft Network, Dial Up Networking etc are system folders each system folder has a unique CLSID key or the Class ID which is 16-bye value which identifies an individual object that point to a corresponding key in the registry.
Now Delete this stupid Icons :)
Start > Run > Type regedit
Go to
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Desktop\Namespace{xxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx}
To delete an icon simply delete the 16 byte CLSID value within "NameSpace". The following are CLSID value of the most commonly used icons
My Briefcaes {85BBD920-42AO-1069-A2E4-08002B30309D}
Desktop {00021400-0000-0000-C000-000000000000046}
Control Panel {21EC2020-3AEA-1069-A2DD--08002B30309D}
Recycle Bin {645FF040-5081-101B-9F08-00AA002F954E}
So these all are the CLSID you will see many more there on the location which I mentioned above
You're Done. Any problem you can send me your mail on
